Stevie Turns Your Social Feeds into TV shows

A new startup called Stevie looks at the content shared on your social networking feeds (and other places you surf the Web) and it assembles a TV show that you can watch. According to an article in TechCrunch, the program generates shows with names like The Comedy Strip, Music Non-Stop and Celeb TV. Users can also download an app to an Apple or Android device that will turn a phone or tablet into a remote control. The pseudo television incorporates video content that friends have shared, status updates, tweets, birthdays etc. How will news organizations effectively utilize this service?
